Oh I know.  There are “days” for just about everything.  Take your dog to work day.   Hug your ferret day.  Recycle your underwear day.  But when there is a day that calls you to make a difference in the world, how can you ignore it? 

October 25th is Make A Difference Day is the largest national day of helping others — a celebration of neighbors helping neighbors. Everyone and anyone can participate. 

What I love about this “day” is that it is something you can do easily with your kids.  Go rake your elderly neighbor’s leaves.  Bake some cookies to take to a friend.    Brainstorm with your kids and see who they decide to help.
